Even more amazing, the company reports that Windows has overtaken iOS in Italy. Android remains the dominant operating system across Europe with 71.9%, an increase of 4.2 percentage points compared with the same period last year.
According to the report, in Britain, Windows accounts for 11.4% of the market. Android is still the number one operating system with 58.4% while BlackBerry now only has 3.1%. Apple’s iOS has dipped by 1.0 percentage point to 27.0%. Although a quite period prior to the release of the new iPhone in Europe probably contributed to the less than stellar showing.
